Heidts CA-101 Details

You dont have to look any farther for tubular control arms for your hot rod. Tubular control arms give your hot rod a much cleaner and hi-tech appearance than the stock stamped steel arms. Made from full .120 wall tubing, fixture welded and features screw-in ball joints and no-squeak bushings. Will work with nearly any stock or aftermarket crossmember.

Replaces 1974-80 Pinto, Bobcat and 1974-78 Mustang II control arms. These control arms are 5/8" narrower than stock, which means that they will reduce front track width by 5/8" per side (or 1-1/4" overall) when compared to a stock width control arm. This helps tuck the wheels up under the fenders without having to buy expensive special offset wheels. When using 5/8" narrower control arms, 5/8" must be removed from each inner tie rod end.

  • Full .120" wall
  • 1" diameter tubing
  • Fixture welded
  • Screw-in ball joints
  • No-squeak bushings
  • 5/8" narrower than stock width
  • Works with all Mustang II crossmembers Speedway sells

Another bonus is that the tubular control arms are available in 5/8 " narrower than stock, which helps tuck the wheels up under the fenders without having to buy expensive special offset wheel. When using 5/8 " narrower control arms, 1 " must be removed from each inner tie rod end.

"When using 5/8" narrower control arms, 1" must be removed from each inner tie rod end." Can these control arms be used with a Mustang II steering rack and pinion? Is there enough length on the tie rod ends to remove an inch from each side?

My mechanic said that my speedway cross member kit for my '54 F100 doesn't allow for enough room to access the bolts on the upper control arms to correctly adjust the camber (its currently at a +5 degrees) because the bolts fall over top the frame when the camber is correct. Would a 5/8" narrower upper control arm be compatible and help resolve the issue or will the bolts end up too close to the coil springs?
